Bingo! Of course that is exactly the right way to do it for individual
deliveries. Why haven't people thought of that before? I don't know, but
I suspect the answer is that people are caught up on thinking of ways to
run spamc and then reject/discard the message if it is spam. Simply
annotating it (as you are doing) is clearly best done like that if you
want to have each user run with their own setting.
I will put this into the documentation somewhere.
